This isn’t the end of Drudge’s account though. Bloomberg has allegedly even considered switching his official residence to a state other than New York. If Clinton were to join Bloomberg as a running mate, a changed residency would simplify the process; after all, the Electoral College generally frowns upon having a prospective president/vice president ticket with both individuals from the same state.

DRUDGE: Bloomberg himself would go as far as to change his official residence from NY to homes he owns in CO or FL, since electoral college makes it hard for a POTUS and VPOTUS to be from same state. https://t.co/XH3TJA9nas pic.twitter.com/NuOy9w6HM8

The Clinton Factor
In light of the foregoing reports, Americans have mulled over the prospect of Hillary Clinton being the running mate to a Democrat candidate. Some folks maintain that it would shake up politics, in light of Clinton’s epic 2016 loss to President Trump. Others believe that Clinton remains out for “revenge” and in ongoing disbelief that Trump bested her.
Reports of Bloomberg’s potential consideration of Clinton also come at an interesting time. The twice-failed candidate has repeatedly toyed with the prospect of joining the 2020 race.
